I`ll be there, what is the chosen tyre in 4wd

Yellow shumi spikes all round if dry or bb green spike in wet(old type rears) not the new type. they dont work.

So it will be the BB greens this weekend then, and what is the difference between an old BB green and a new one?

Sorry just been out of the game for a while;)

the old 1s are softer. the new 1s are too hard

What are the part numbers WOODY?

ill be there on sunday! shud be sunny

Ill be there a question for XX4 owners what gearing should I run for a 10x2 with a kit 84 spur thanks. The motor is a Peak V2.

21-22

good days racing.although slippy and costing me a fortune in replacing snapped parts ! :yawn:

Snapped parts.... why?

G

on that nightmare of a double jump,broke 2 shock towers..i dont think i saw anyone do a full race without being roofed on that jump. still fun 'n games tho ;)

not to be cheeky Chris we didn't get it wrong at all today, the problem with it is if you hit it at any descent pace it kills the car, just roll up to it of throttle the BLIP it just on exit to ramp lands on down ram every time ISH?
ps had our best days racing in months loved it today
the new nosram brushless is ace

Not really, you just go miles :D

So long as you hit it with the car settled you can go as fast as you like, it only goes wrong when you are trying to accelerate or change direction on the upslope. Get you speed and line sorted on the straight before then just hold the car there, easy ;)

you're my hero, richard.

lmao :p

Sorry Rich, have you been on the jump? and if so when. I cant remember you coming down since we made it.:confused:

its more of a vertical launch now, hit it hard and your heading for the stars

Great days racing. The jump is a great addition to the track. i roofed it a few times but luckily no breakages. once you have got the speed and the line it aint so bad.

Sorry dood:p

Hi, do you run at Bury outdoors most Sundays then? What sort of numbers do you get? (never been to the track but it looks great on photos). We're not a million miles away and it would be good to call over sometime.

Will anyone be down there on sunday?

i used to race there a few years back and just recently started again just before christmas. i think about 20 drivers turned up on sunday which was good to say the weather wasnt great.

It runs over the winter whrn there isnt a regional on (north East) or Batley Club meet or the Batley supper cup. It is one of the best tracks in the country with some of the best drivers in the country attending most club meets. (that last statement doesnt includ me).:)

i used to race at bury every week about 4 years ago, and the standard of drivers now is amazing. and the quality of driving on sunday was brilliant in the tricky conditions. i was 7 seconds off making the A, which isnt too bad seeing as it is onli my second proper meeting for 4 years :confused:

You have got to think as well Chris most of us where using 4wd (apart from Stu and Danny) so 7 seconds of the A was a good run.:)

Yes and I still TQD.

but in the end got thrashed buy a young kid the a 12 year old car didnt you stu??:wtf: ;)

The track was good on sunday and it was the first time in 12 years that i had been to the track, The double on the back straight is very daunting for a newbie but after a few runs you just knew how to hit it, thanks to woody for the setup tips and the rear wishbone:o Yes the double got me in round 1:D , but it was a great day i just need to learn more about the car now.

Tell the whole storey. Some one with a 4wd completly had me at the end of the straight and on the first lap I was last! Where did I finish and how far behind your 4wd( in the slippy conditions) was I at the end?

hahahah heheheheh ;)
don't know what you mean
lol
:)
it was a good day, really enjoyed the whole day apart from the cold wind,the damp evened things up for Matty 4wd , you guys(Danny and Stu)were so fast even in the wet,(2wd) i was amazed, best days racing this year
we will be there this week, dont think owt else is on anywere is there??

Well you definately pulled that TQ round out the bag to show how it is done.:)

cheers mate.

are we going to get nice weather this weekend though, i hope so.

Is there nothing on this weekend(regionals etc)? If not does any one want to come do some work on the track? Like getting rid of some bricks?:confused:

This Sunday is listed as a round of the winter series on the club website Woody, but if it changes to a work party day that's fine by me.

I heard that there was going to be another double added around the sleeping police men area:eh?: can anyone confirm this?:mad:

I can. There are going to be a few things changed. Yes this weekend is a round but i was thinking af before the meeting starts. Say 9.30 ish

if i can get matthews ass out of bed he will come to help
